Visibility has drastically been impaired and drivers warned to slow down and drive carefully as a massive sandstorm has been sweeping through Riyahd, the capital of Saudi Arabia the last couple of days.

The Kingdom has had to deal with a number of extreme conditions in the last couple of weeks including other sandstorms as well as thunderstorms and heavy rain. Some of the extreme conditions even caused governorates and schools across the capital to be shut down.
